Padres 5, Cardinals 3 (11)
ST. LOUIS -- After further review, the San Diego Padres' 11th inning continued.
Moments later, pinch-hitter Will Venable crushed a two-run homer to give San Diego a 5-3 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night at sold-out Busch Stadium.
Shortstop Clint Barmes reached with two outs on a ground-rule double down the right field line. The ball was originally ruled foul by first base umpire David Rackley, but the call was overturned by replay umpires in New York City.
Venable then jumped on the first pitch from Carlos Villanueva (3-3) for his sixth homer of the season as San Diego (38-43) started a 10-game road trip by handing St. Louis (51-27) its third straight loss.
Shawn Kelley (1-2) struck out four in two scoreless innings for the win and Craig Kimbrel garnered his 20th save.
Neither starter figured in the decision.
Padres right-hander Tyson Ross gave up four hits and three runs in six innings, walking five and striking out six.
Cardinals left-hander Tim Cooney pitched six innings, allowing four hits and three runs (two earned). He issued two walks and struck out six.
St. Louis opened the scoring in the bottom of the first when catcher Yadier Molina knocked in third baseman Matt Carpenter with an infield out.
Third baseman Yangervis Solarte tied it in the second with a one-out solo homer to left, a 422-foot blast for his third home run of the year.
Catcher Austin Hedges gave the Padres a lead in the fourth with a two-out RBI single to right center that scored left fielder Justin Upton, who reached on Carpenter's two-base fielding error.
Ross made it 3-1 in the fifth by launching his first major league homer, a 366-foot shot just over the wall in right.
In the bottom of the fifth, Carpenter's broken-bat RBI single to center plated Cooney, who doubled for his first big league hit. Right fielder Jason Heyward then tied it with a double down the left field line that scored Carpenter from first.
NOTES: St. Louis made room for Thursday night's starting pitcher, LHP Tim Cooney, by placing OF Jon Jay (left wrist) on the 15-day disabled list. Jay is batting .223 with one homer and 10 RBIs in 166 at-bats. ... San Diego RHP Tyson Ross entered Thursday with a streak of 10 starts and 66 innings without allowing a homer. ... The Cardinals signed five international players Thursday, landing 16-year-old Venezuelan RHP Alvaro Seijas for $762,500 and also inking 16-year-old SS Raffy Ozuna of the Dominican Republic for $600,000.
